Diani Beach is just 1 hours drive from Mombasa Airport, making allowances for the ferry crossing. The beach has pure white sand, flanked with palm trees as far as you can see. The Indian ocean is beautiful and great for swimming as its protected by the reef. Diani is a quiet place with hotels hidden from view in the forests that runs the whole length of the beach. However if you want it, there is plenty to do in Diani. 40 Thieves and Nomads (popular beach bars and restaurants) are within walking distance. There is also many african boutique shops, very close to the house. The local supermarkets are large and well stocked, quite surprisingly for a small village, and are also close to the house. There are many places hidden away to have lunch or dinner, including The Blue Marlin, Almenara, Diani Reef Hotel, Leonardos - taxis are readily available to take you if you don't have a car. Diani also boasts an outstanding, beautiful 18 hole golf course, with very cheap fees.

Further details for this vacation house rental in Kenya Coast, Kenya

Cinders House - further details: The house is a great place to relax but being positioned centrally, you are close to the all the places you may want to go to. Diani is quiet and unless you visit the beach bar or the supermarket, you will not see many tourists as all the houses and hotels are tucked away in the forest that runs the length of the Diani Beach Road. The house is large and airy and feels cool inside. You'll be thankful of the pool because Diani can be very hot! Our house is serviced by Anne, our trusty housekeeper, and Granton the caretaker and gardener. Anne will be able to help you with anything - arrange a massage, arrange fresh fish, buy your vegetables for you, do you washing and ironing, your washing up and clean your house every day, top to bottom. Before moving, we lived as a family in this house so it is set up for normal living, with everything you may need. Anne and Granton worked for us for the 2 years we lived there and are wonderful. Our cook, will make your lunch and dinner.

Diani Itself - Further information: Having lived in Diani for 2 years, we can tell you anything you would like to know and would be happy to give you any information or important contacts, like The Masseur who will come to your house for 1 hours massage for around £6, or the fishermen who will come with fresh crab, parrot fish, prawns, calamari, or Lucy who runs the fresh vegetable stall at the end of the road and will make you the best fresh fruit salad for around £1 and even deliver it to your door, if you arrange it. Diani is a wonderful place to have a holiday, for all ages. It feels like paradise on earth and the Kenyans will do anything for you, with a smile.
